— Things I’ve learnt in my 20 years of being alive.

1. Your friends that you make in high school won’t be your friends for life.

2. Just because you failed an exam doesn’t mean your life is over.

3. People will spread rumors about you, how you deal with them is your choice.

4. Choose your friends over boys, every single time.

5. You don’t need alot of friends, just ones that you can count on.

6. You think you know someone and then they surprise you.

7. Be careful who you trust.

8. Some people are just passing through your life, they help you learn how to let go.

9. Just because someone says ‘i love you’ does not mean they will be around forever.

10. People will get mad at you for being whole.

11. People will hate you just because you’re ‘you.’

12. Life is full of challenges, it’s up to you how you get through them.

13. You don’t need anybody to make you happy.

14. Sometimes you have to ‘call it a day,’ turn the page and start a new chapter.

15. Never trust somebody because of what they say, make sure their actions prove it.

16. You are beautiful, regardless of what anybody says.

17. Take criticism with a pinch of salt, it doesn’t matter anyway.

18. Never beg somebody to stay, the right people will stay no matter what.

19. You are worth more than gold, don’t let anyone tell you different.

20. Time flies, make sure you’re spending yours with the right people.
